Some great work by Dave K this week looking at string concatenation performance for Quantiv’s Planner application.

There is also a significant difference between Chrome and the rest of the browser universe!

We have had 5 great new technologists join Quantiv over the last few weeks but we are still looking for a Senior Developer.

Please note though that I’m not going to respond to anything here, apply online!
